Sir, may I request you to read the intelligence law in depth before you comment?
Didn't ZTE deliberately violate known Iran sanctions and hide their involvement? They were also judged guilty in a court of law.
There isn't even a need for any court or judge - any security and state official may do the below and not just to Chinese citizens or corporations.
The Intelligence Law, by contrast, repeatedly obliges individuals, organizations, and institutions to assist Public Security and State Security officials in carrying out a wide array of “intelligence” work. Article Seven stipulates that “any organization or citizen shall support, assist, and cooperate with state intelligence work according to law.” Article 14, in turn, grants intelligence agencies authority to insist on this support: “state intelligence work organs, when legally carrying forth intelligence work, may demand that concerned organs, organizations, or citizens provide needed support, assistance, and cooperation.”
Organizations and citizens must also protect the secrecy of “any state intelligence work secrets of which they are aware.” These clauses do not stipulate that only Chinese “organizations” are subject to these requirements.
